Before starting maintenance or cleaning, switch off the unit and withdraw the mains plug.
Wipe over unit and dust-collector compartment if necessary with a damp cloth and allow to dry. Do
not use abrasive materials or solvents. Clean floor nozzle and brush webs occasionally with the crev-
ice nozzle.
Do not wash the dust collector in a dishwasher or clean with aggressive detergents. (This could dam-
age or dull the dust collector).
...the suction performance falls off noticeably:
Check the dust collector or the dust bag, and if necessary empty or replace.
Drop a small coin through the tube and hose to ensure that these are not blocked. At the same time,
check that the nozzle is not blocked.
Check all filters (outflow air filter, motor filter, dust collector filter).
...it is difficult to move the nozzle:
reduce the suction capacity. This does not reduce the cleaning
effect.
...the motor overheating protection has switched off the unit:
e.g. owing to overload of the motor,
by full dust collector/dust bag or blocked tools.
Switch off the unit, withdraw the mains plug, allow motor to cool. Check dust collector/dust bag,
suction tube and suction hose; removed any blockage. The unit can be switched on again after
approx. 30 minutes.
...the fuse has blown:
the fuse can blow if other electrical units with high consumption are used at
the same time as the vacuum cleaner from the same circuit. In this case before switching on set the
suction capacity control to the lowest level and only select a higher level after switching on.
Do not simply discard packing material and used units!
Unit packing
: we recommend saving the packing material for the term of the warranty to permit
safe transport in the event of a warranty claim.
Before disposal, please separate the materials: take the polyethylene (PE) bag to a PE recycling bank.
Recycling the vacuum cleaner at the end of its service life:
the plastic parts are identified by a
material code, to allow them to be recycled at the end of the service life of the vacuum cleaner.
Your local authority environment office will provide information on the location of the nearest
recycling facility.
